In Head-to-Head (H2H) contests, your goal is simple – to score more than your opponent. That’s why consistency and data-driven strategy are key. PerfectLineup gives you every tool and insight you need to build a winning team. Here’s a step-by-step guide to excel in H2H contests:
1. Understand Teams Strength
• First, analyse which team has a higher probability of winning the match. In PerfectLineup’s Key Match Insights section, you will find each team’s win probability percentage.
• If the percentage is heavily skewed in one team’s favor, plan to pick 6 or 7 players from that team to increase performance chances.
2. Understand the Venue
• Go to PerfectLineup’s Venue Page to analyse venue details.
• Find out if the pitch favours batsmen, helps bowlers, or is neutral. In case of bowlers, check whether the pitch supports pacers or spinners.
• Define team structure based on these insights. Example:
o Team A: 4 players in batting roles (can be WK, batsmen, or all-rounders)
o Team A: 3 players in bowling roles (bowlers or all-rounders) and only pacers
o Team B: 3 players in batting roles
o Team B: 1 player in a bowling role
These insights will give you clarity on squad structure.
3. Select Top Performers for Each Role
• After setting the structure, use PerfectLineup’s data-driven insights to select top performers.
Pay attention to:
o Recent performances: Which player is in form right now?
o Head-to-head stats: Which player performs best against the opposition?
o Venue performance: Which player performs consistently best on that pitch?
• Always prioritise players who standout in these categories.
• If there are lineup gaps, choose remaining players from PerfectLineup’s Power Rankings, which show reliable options for every role.
4. Choose Captain and Vice-Captain wisely
• Get the best Captain (C) and Vice-Captain (VC) suggestions for each match from PerfectLineup’s Advanced section.
• In H2H contests, always choose the first player as Captain and the second player as Vice-Captain. This will allow you to take full advantage of PerfectLineup’s in-depth data analysis. 5. Simplify the process
• In H2H contests, you just need a strong team. That’s why there’s no need to use the Lineup Builder feature.
• Just focus on a well-researched lineup, created using PerfectLineup’s tools and insights.
